Kidney Cancer

​If there is one thing all kidney cancer patients can agree on is that we wish the cancer would just GO away.

​

Part of the healing process can be looking forward to 'new life'.  What better way to move forward than to plant a tree and watch it grow.  New growth.  New life.

​

A new path forward.

Mike Peterson

An avid naturalist and outdoorsman, Mike quietly lived life.  Soon after retiring, things he enjoyed most created fatigue.  A stubborn man, his son finally convinced him to go to the Emergency Department to be evaluated.  The doctors discovered a mass in his kidney, liver, and lungs.  Stage 4 renal cell carcinoma.  Mike passed away quietly on July 1, 2025.  The same way he lived.  God Bless his memory.
